It's no coincidence that the pubs in the area that don't rely on food alone have thrived and survived are largely real ale pubs! It's one area of the pub trade that's growing and improving and the more that put their effort into providing decent real beers and guest ales from micro brewerys the better.

Well done to them in a difficult trade.
